Sir Sean Connery in private tour of NLS

Scottish screen legend Sir Sean Connery has made his first visit
to the National Library of Scotland.

Sir Sean was given a tour of our George IV Bridge Building on
Wednesday 23 August. His visit was prompted by the chance to see
some of the items in the John Murray
Archive, which we acquired recently. He was impressed
by plans to make this unique literary collection widely available
to the public.

'Having viewed the John Murray Archive, I very much hope that
others will be given the same opportunity as I've had today,' he
said.
